The Blue Obelisk Cave is one of the best locations to start a base in ARK Scorched Earth Ascended. Finding it can be a challenge though, as it’s quite a distance from the Blue Obelisk and difficult to spot even from the air.
Scorched Earth Artifact Location Guide
The Blue Obelisk Cave is a premium base location due to its abundance of water and surrounding resources such as metal. If this sounds interesting to you and your party, head to the coordinates (27.9 29.3) and search the surrounding rock face for a hole large enough to walk into.
You may have to do some searching if you're looking for this cave on the ground. This cave is relatively close to the Blue Obelisk, so keep that as your primary landmark as you look around so you don't get lost.
Once you find the entrance, you’ll find a long, winding cave full of venomous spiders and bats hanging around. For the seasoned ARK adventurer, this shouldn’t be too much of a problem, especially if you’re running with a backpack. However, make sure you have some durable consumables on hand, just in case.
